Need to remove the lower door to adjust the shelves. Any idea on how to do that on this fridge?

Expert Reply:

To remove the door on your Everchill WD-282FWDC refrigerator, you will need to get a Philips screwdriver and lay on the floor facing up, with your head at the hinge side. You will then see two Philips screws in a white bracket. With the door open, remove the screw that is normally hidden, then close the door and remove the other screw.

Have a buddy help you open the door a little and lift it off the pin, then pull the bottom out and slide it off the top pin.

Thanks for that direction of door removal. We still struggled getting off second bottom pin and took aggressive action until we prevailed.

I will take door off to replace shelf, thanks for telling me how, so now my question is where can I buy a replacement shelf.

@JoeG I'd recommend reaching out to Everchill since we do not carry replacements.

What if I cant open the door enough to get to that second screw? My fridge is next to my restroom and the door opens bately 90°. I might be able to get it with pliers but even then I'm not sure.

@Esteban Are you able to slide the fridge out from the cutout to get more space?

@ClaireH. Unfortunately not. The fridge door, when open is parallel and rests against the restroom door. I would have to slide it out completely so I could angle it. At that point id just say nevermind and have weird shelf spspacing.

@Esteban Gotcha, I think your only options are needle nose pliers (vice grip maybe to help keep ahold of the screw) or a maybe an angled screwdriver to try and remove the second screw.
